N2  - Two groups of female sex workers were compared with respect to their healthy or unhealthy life styles. Both 'call girls' (private sex workers) and brothel workers were infected with sexually transmitted diseases as often in their noncommercial sexual relations as in their work, smoking was a serious problem for both, and each group endured problems from clients specific to their work sites. However, overall, the call girls had healthier life styles, but were more vulnerable to pressures from clients for unsafe sex and to potential violence.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
